2. I live next to PW County in Fairfax County
1. Prince William County is going to lose millions in Federal dollars for the school system because they scared Latinos into not filling out the State surveys.

2. They are losing tax dollars from legal Spanish owned businesses that are closing. Drive down Route 1 sometime. Many of the stores are boarded up.

3. Their prisons are so full of people they picked up in immigration sweeps that they have to pay to send their prisoners to out-of-state prisons. Meanwhile, INS has no plans to pick up and deport the people picked up in their raids.

4. Houses are being abandoned.

5. Even the legal Spanish-descendant residents and citizens are moving out. The whole area is unfriendly.

Prince William County is the perfect example of misguided GOP politics and polices.
